I’ve added my commentary. In summary, there are some good ideas here, but they don’t quite add up to the radical transformative programme that is needed. In some areas they are timid, and there are silences, such as the need for affordable, and not for profit, housing. On taxation there is nothing like the progressive taxes on income and wealth that are needed to reverse the inequality that has increased under both Tories and Labour. Potential sources of government income are also missed. And there is the absurd commitment to “getting the deficit down” when the government will need to rely on deficit financing.

Proposals on energy and housing fail to consider the environmental impacts, and there is no word on innovative proposals such as “Green QE” and “a million climate jobs” through housing insulation retrofit and similar schemes.
